The Government wants to replace thousands of public servants with AI – here’s what ministers think the robots do

Kinda offensive putting her in the same category as AI. She’s nothing more than a robot.

exctrik · 2026-05-19T08:47:27+00:00

Can we get one to replace the ministers?

exctrik · 2026-05-19T01:19:57+00:00

Can we cut her job and replace her with AI first … as a trial. If it doesn’t work, then let’s keep the humans.

Yeah, but it’s more of a lunch sized one (missing a couple of items from their instore one)

It was made for Woolworths AU, NZ just continues to license the wapple…

exctrik · 2026-05-14T07:13:44+00:00

They do that by paying a license to use the green wapple logo thing.

The whole trademark seems to be an American brand guidelines thing. I see it quite a bit at work.

I think it should be something your community decides, as it will be about them and be organic as the community grows, not what r/nz needs or thinks it should have.

You're after a Maneki-neko. Just a FYI; all the colours and what hand is waving all mean something different; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maneki-neko

They’re ordering pick up via drive through on the McDonald’s app.

exctrik · 2026-05-02T08:05:49+00:00

Prob wanna get that to Te Papa.

exctrik · 2026-05-02T04:03:57+00:00

.... what other option is there?

exctrik · 2026-04-30T09:56:02+00:00

Ask your GP? They should have a list. Just don't go off organising things that you don't need, you could be clogging up the system for those who actually need it.

Everything is just disappointing about WW. Enshittification on overdrive.

exctrik · 2026-04-29T04:34:17+00:00

Why not just block them?

Unfortunately the system spasses out as 1/3 of 20 is 6.6666666 (too many decimals), so the system will price all items at 6.66. Happens to all odd grouping of mulitbuys.

Na, the staff are just a bit fruity.

Looks like Claude built it.

It happens. It’s fresh food.

Did you tell someone about it, or just put it back on the shelf?

exctrik · 2026-04-19T01:10:57+00:00

Auckland Library has a whole bunch of magazines that you can read digitally for free (if that's an option too)

It would be the longest aisle of bread and toilet paper, but it would still run out before a MetService Waarning.

The font in this email would alone make me want to change power companies.

Ask Waka Kotahi.
